FYI, you can edit your posts by clicking on the 3 dots on the top right of the posts and clicking on edit. I notice you post duplicate posts when the original has a typo. Is there some problem like the post not showing up that is making you post again or is it to correct the typo?
Also, the reason I suggested getting their own router is for reasons other then just monitoring bandwidth. The Panoramic gateways use the xFI system licensed by Comcast. About a year ago Comcast automated many of the wifi settings like channel/mode/encryption/band steering which can be problematic, specially if you have IoT devices or live in apartment where there is heavy channel congestion. Also, many of the options now are in the cloud and require a phone with a app to access and configure. Not to mention many of those features like port forwarding don't work for some, and other features like alternate DNS doesn't work at all. Last, there is the security and privacy concerns of letting the ISP control the firmware of your router. If OP is technically literate and wife is WFH, I thought getting a retail router would be a better fit. So many people think Cox internet is bad when really it's the gateway that is bad.
